The Official #5 Tennessee @ South Carolina Game Thread, 7:00 PM ET, ESPN

[Allvols1996]

Hoping this thread will be left up, because it deserve to be. Banks has been a disaster all year, and Heupel’s offense has covered it up for the most part. Absolutely shameful and disgusting. Fire him and get a proven DC.

Tv going off. Not watching this travesty of defense. Rattler is awful and they're making him a dark horse Heisman candidate. They couldn't score 7 on Florida who just lost to vandy. Vandy gunna drag us next week too

 

[Volnbeers]

bring in Milton

 

[Other_Guy]

Vols gonna need 52 and a couple of turnovers to pull this one out

Dang SC only scoring 16 points in the 2nd half? Impressive.

 

[turbovol]

Stop throwing the ball high, man.

 

[Matt2496]

We have half a defense. 50% is a failing grade.

There needs to be a house cleaning after tonight.

 

[DB1995]

I guess td here and then one to start the 3rd and we back in it, but I’m not holding my breath

 

[jaguinn5]

It ain't over until it's over. 3 minutes plenty of time to get a TD.

You seem pretty confident we can score here....

 

[Volsfannn]

This defense has me speechless. BS. Tennessee beat Bama so was a good season. Just sux to accomplish so much and then get schooled by a South Carolina

 

[kxtop]

The officiating is way beyond inept, it’s corrupt.

Officiating? Give me break, sounds like Kentucky fans. Our defense just is not playing!!

 

[patrick]

Shut it. You don’t know what you’re talking about.

SC jr just put 35 on the Vols d. D with no stops.

Ball game.

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

What are the odds that Carolina punts tonight?

O/U is 1

 

[LittleVol]

Every QB with any talent has a career game against us.

Tired of defending this dude.

 

[tnvols72]

2nd game Tillman has played where the offense looks out of sync

 

[Switch 625]

Hooker still throwing high. All year

 

[Other_Guy]

bring in Milton

He can cover?

 

[WestTennesseeVol]

If Banks isn’t fired tomorrow, I’m done with Heupel.

LOL

 

[cobbwebb0710]

Credit this Carolina defense, they have tackled well tonight.

 

[AllVols]

What did I say in the prior post.

Cool hand Luke.

 

[Memphisvol87]

We can score. Defense has got to figure it out

 

[MeanOrange]

What the hell Hooker? Can't hit the broadside of the barn.

 

[BruiserVol]

Why do our receivers go down at first contact on every play?

 

[VolBrah]

It’s been a better season then we could have hoped for. This defense is not good enough to be in top 4 much less top 10.

 

[Spawn]

I'm not giving up, but I'm frustrated with the D, or lack there of.

 

[JoeMiltonsAgent]

Maybe at Halftime, Huepel can explain to our coverage team that there is this thing called pass coverage and that they need to turn their head ad try to keep the receiver from catching the ball.

The inability to articulate the head is a staple of the Wille Martinez philosophy of playing DB.
